AN OPEN LETTER TO TELEVISION EXECUTIVES

As a parent, I’m often disappointed with the lack of
shows that we can all watch together as a family. Might I suggest putting
together a few “Special Event Crossover” episodes that combine my
favorites with those of my children? The following are some suggestions to get
you started.

The
Max and Ruby Theory

Four highly intelligent scientists sit around an
apartment eating takeout, trying to figure out what the deal is with Ruby. The
show lasts for a record ten seasons because no one gets anywhere.

Dora’s
Scandal

Dora lands a coveted job exploring the problems of
the White House. Once her Backpack gets security clearance, she meets with
Cyrus and the President in the Oval Office daily to discuss B6-13, a covert
operation run by a man named Swiper. Once in a while, the First Lady and Diego try
to meddle in their business.

The Real
Housewives of Mickey Mouse Clubhouse

Minnie Mouse is happily the OG of the MMC; that is until
Daisy starts trying to take control and work her way to the top of the social hierarchy
of the clubhouse. When Daisy throws a party for Mickey and “forgets” to invite
Minnie, Andy Cohen is called in to save the day.

Doc
McStuffin’s Anatomy

Doc is a no
nonsense toy doctor who starts a prestigious internship at the Doc Mobile Hospital
in Seattle. Even distractions from McChilly and McStuffy can’t deter Doc from saving
every doll in sight. And when trouble strikes, she turns to her Person, Lambie.

Breaking
Team Umizoomi

Team Umizoomi is in over their heads when they
become friends with some not so nice Bots. Also look out for the critically
acclaimed spinoff: Better Call Milli.

Sesame
Girls

Four friends try to navigate life in their twenties
while also struggling to make rent living on the hip Sesame Street. It doesn’t
take long for Hannah to realize the only person who really understands what she’s
going through is Oscar the Grouch.

Curb
Your Daniel Tiger

A curmudgeonly man keeps getting into trouble with
his neighbors after constantly taking his tiger for walks without curbing him.
Hilarity ensues.

Game
of Wonder Pets

Linny, Tuck and Ming-Ming fight for control of the
preschool classroom that they live in. In the end, only one can survive. And it’s
not going to be Ming Ming.
